Notes 1. Data sources: Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) 2012, Census 2011, Census 2001, Child Poverty Unit, NOMIS, National Records of Scotland (NRS) and Scottish Government. 2. Populations presented in the population trend chart and used to calculate life expectancy estimates are taken from NRS small area population estimates and are based on: the 2001 census for the years 1996-2001; both the 2001 and 2011 census for the years 2002- 2010; and the 2011 census for the years 2011-2014. 3. The Income deprivation indicator is derived from SIMD 2012, more information on this deprivation index can be found at: http://simd.scotland.gov.uk/publication-2012 4. Life expectancies are calculated based on population estimates and death registrations. 95% confidence intervals have been added on the graphs to give an indication of their accuracy. The x-axes of the life expectancy graphs give the mid-year for each life expectancy estimate e.g. the most recent estimate, denoted by 2012 represents the life expectancy estimate for the period 2010 - 2014. 5.A notes and definitions document providing further information on the variables presented in the profile can be found in the Profiles section of http://www.west-dunbarton.gov.uk/council/community-councils/. 6.
